Genetic Dissection of Acute Anterior Uveitis Reveals Similarities and Differences in Associations Observed With Ankylosing Spondylitis
AssociationN=14,050Robinson PC et al.(2015)· Arthritis &amp; Rheumatology

Genetic dissection of acute anterior uveitis (AAU) using high-density Immunochip genotyping in 1,711 AAU cases and 10,000 controls identifies HLA-B27 tag SNP rs116488202 (OR=16.8, P<1×10⁻³⁰⁰) as the strongest association, and three genome-wide significant non-MHC loci (IL23R, chromosome 2p15 intergenic region, and ERAP1) shared with ankylosing spondylitis. Five additional suggestive loci including IL10-IL19, IL18R1-IL1R1, IL6R, KIF21B, and EYS are identified, with shared genetic pathways with inflammatory bowel disease suggesting common etiologic mechanisms.

About IL10

The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine produced primarily by monocytes and to a lesser extent by lymphocytes. This cytokine has pleiotropic effects in immunoregulation and inflammation. It down-regulates the expression of Th1 cytokines, MHC class II Ags, and costimulatory molecules on macrophages. It also enhances B cell survival, proliferation, and antibody production. This cytokine can block NF-kappa B activity, and is involved in the regulation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Knockout studies in mice suggested the function of this cytokine as an essential immunoregulator in the intestinal tract. Mutations in this gene are associated with an increased susceptibility to HIV-1 infection and rheumatoid arthritis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]
